Parking at the Former Trowse Station Site
The station site at 4 The Arches, Lakenham, Norwich, NR1 2EG is a former railway station rather than a current station facility. Historic England records the railway station as a former building constructed between 1844 and 1845 (historicengland.org.uk).
The address places the site in Lakenham, on the Norwich side of Trowse. Network Rail lists a property named Norwich Trowse Station, with general station information and location details available through its property record (networkrailway.my.site.com). Drivers planning a rail journey should therefore distinguish the former Trowse site from Norwich station, where a separate operator-run car park is listed.

Commuter Choices for Norwich Rail Journeys
The nearest current rail connection listed for this location is Norwich railway station, 0.8 mi away, a 17-minute walk.
